abt q5 1 Tweaking under the hood: Abt Q5 receives a power boost with the latest upgrade

Introduced in Essen, the Abt Q5 is already receiving plenty of upgrade options. But the latest version comes from German tuners Abt Sportsline, who initially revved up its 2.0-liter TFSI from 211 hp to 240 hp and now claim that there is also a 275 hp option waiting in line! Apart from that, there is also the option of a 3.0-liter TDI available with up to 310 hp or a 2.0-liter TDI engine with 190 hp. As far as the remainder of the tuner kit goes, you get an almost complete overhaul in the form of a custom built muffler, new rear wing and apron, larger front grill, new front spoiler, large fender extensions, and door trims. With added power options and air-suspension kit available, the Abt Q5 seems to have just gotten all the more exciting.
